  • Global Liquidity Speaker Series Post US Election – Impact of a New Administration January 26, 2021
    Global Liquidity Speaker Series Post US Election – Impact of a new administration January 26, 2021 Speakers: Adam Glassman Edward Hill Mark Cabana Coordinator Good day, everyone, and welcome to the Bank of America 2021 Global Liquidity Speaker Series titled Post-US Election Impact of a New Administration conference call, hosted by Adam Glassman. My name is Patrick, and I’m your event operator. During the presentation, your lines will remain on listen-only. [Operator instructions]. I would like to advise all parties this conference is being recorded for replay and transcription purposes. Now, I’d like to hand over to Adam. Please go ahead. Adam Thank you, Patrick. Hello, and welcome to everyone to this TTS Liquidity Speaker Series, where we’ll attempt to measure some of the potential impacts of a new administration and a new Congress. Again, my name is Adam Glassman, I am Head of Deposit, Balance, and Rate Strategy for GTS at Bank of America. I’m joined here today by Mark Cabana, Head of US Rate Strategy at Bank of America Global Research, and Edward Hill, Public Policy Executive, also here at Bank of America. I think if some of you were on the last call, the last time we were together on a call like this was on election day. We had some great conversation about the possible outcomes and potential changes in policies and approach for each administration. Here we are, and a lot has happened since. Since this is only a 30-minute call, I guess we’ll jump right in. We, again, have seen, obviously, the Biden administration come in, and sort of a blue wave in both the Senate and the Congress.

  • Using Activists' Pairwise Comparisons to Measure Ideology
    Is John McCain more conservative than Rand Paul? Using activists' pairwise comparisons to measure ideology ∗ Daniel J. Hopkins Associate Professor University of Pennsylvania [email protected] Hans Noely Associate Professor Georgetown University [email protected] April 3, 2017 Abstract Political scientists use sophisticated measures to extract the ideology of members of Congress, notably the widely used nominate scores. These measures have known limitations, including possibly obscuring ideological positions that are not captured by roll call votes on the limited agenda presented to legislators. Meanwhile scholars often treat the ideology that is measured by these scores as known or at least knowable by voters and other political actors. It is possible that (a) nominate fails to capture something important in ideological variation or (b) that even if it does measure ideology, sophisticated voters only observe something else. We bring an alternative source of data to this subject, asking samples of highly involved activists to compare pairs of senators to one another or to compare a senator to themselves. From these pairwise comparisons, we can aggregate to a measure of ideology that is comparable to nominate. We can also evaluate the apparent ideological knowledge of our respondents. We find significant differences between nominate scores and the perceived ideology of politically sophisticated activists. ∗DRAFT: PLEASE CONSULT THE AUTHORS BEFORE CITING. Prepared for presentation at the annual meeting of the Midwest Political Science Association in Chicago, April 6-9, 2017. We would like to thank Michele Swers, Jonathan Ladd, and seminar participants at Texas A&M University and Georgetown University for useful comments on earlier versions of this project.

  • Congressional Scorecard 109Th Congress 2 0 0 5 - 2006
    IRANIAN AMERICAN POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE Congressional Scorecard 109th Congress 2 0 0 5 - 2006 Please visit us on the web at www.iranianamericanpac.org About IAPAC IAPAC is a registered bipartisan political action committee that contributes to candidates for public office who are attuned to the domestic concerns of the Iranian American community. IAPAC focuses exclusively on domestic policy issues such as civil rights and immigration, and it encourages Americans of Iranian descent to actively participate in civic affairs. Mission • To support and promote the election of candidates for federal, state and local office, regardless of party affiliation, who are attuned to the domestic needs and issues of the Iranian American community • To support and promote Iranian American participation in civic affairs Issue Advocacy Civil Liberties: Balancing Civil Liberties and National Security in the Post-9/11 Era. Protecting our security and ensuring that the government does not infringe upon basic constitutional rights have long been important issues for civil libertarians and certain ethnic communities. IAPAC believes that our government must take the appropriate measures to protect our nation from further atrocities, but that it can do so without eliminating basic constitutional rights. Immigration: Immigration reform that is driven by proper national security concerns and remedies based on a fair and accurate appraisal of deficiencies in the immigration process, and not simply on national origin. Specifically, IAPAC advocates for a fair and measured execution of federal regulations governing the issuance of non-immigrant and immigrant visas for Iranian nationals. Congressional Scorecard The IAPAC 2005-2006 Congressional Scorecard rates members of Congress on votes and other positions taken in the House of Representatives and the Senate in the 109th Congress, which affect the domestic needs of the Iranian American community.
